Frequently asked questions

Is this legal advice?

No. We prepare documents based on facts you confirm and give general information about the process. We're not a law firm and don't provide legal advice. For complex cases, speak to a solicitor.

Does my document really need a solicitor's signature?

Depends on your case. Some court declarations must be sworn under the Perjury Act 1911, which means signing in person in front of a solicitor, commissioner for oaths, or similar. Others are a statement of truth that don't need this at all. We'll tell you clearly which applies to you.

How do you decide the price?

Price depends on what stage your notice is at and what document you actually need, shown up front before you pay so there's never a surprise at checkout.

What if I lose my document link?

Every order gets a permanent link. If you lose it, use "Find my order" with your order reference and email to get back in.

For businesses

Managing PCNs for a fleet?

Upload a batch of notices at once and we'll triage every one — which are worth fighting, which to just pay, which need urgent attention. Approve the ones worth challenging and we'll draft the appeal for you, including hire-vehicle liability transfer where it applies. Free 30-day trial, no card required.
